How Preston North End's form over past 10 games compares to Championship rivals - including Stoke, Hull & Millwall

The countdown is on for another big night at Deepdale as in-form Preston North End prepare to take on rivals Blackburn Rovers - with a win set to lift Paul Heckingottom’s side into the Championship’s automatic promotion places for at least 24 hours.

It has already been a remarkable season for the Lilywhites as they have moved on from a narrow scrape with relegation to become one of the second tier’s true surprise packages during the current campaign.

As it stands ahead of tonight’s much-anticipated showdown, North End have lost just three of their 15 league games and are sitting in fourth place in the table. That is a complete contrast to Rovers, who are now just three places above the Championship relegation zone.

But how does PNE’s form across the last 10 games compare to their rivals across the second tier?
